| Reverse description | A circular central device depicts a stylized grain sprig to the left and a winding road or river to the right, with a simple house or shelter in the background, evoking themes of agricultural sufficiency and rural development. The date '1978' appears at the top within the circle. Surrounding the central device, the Devanagari legend 'सबके लिए अनाज और मकान' arcs along the upper portion of the field, while the English legend 'FOOD & SHELTER FOR ALL' runs along the lower portion, both referencing the FAO campaign theme. The overall design is emblematic of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization's global initiative. |
